OCT, B-scan ultrasound, and ultrasound biomicroscopy identified distinct structural signatures across hypotony sequelae including maculopathy, choroidal detachment, and cyclodialysis cleft in cases where slit-lamp examination and indirect ophthalmoscopy alone proved insufficient.

Peripapillary hyperreflective ovoid mass-like structures showed no significant correlation with intracranial pressure levels in a cross-sectional cohort of 54 patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension, suggesting anatomic rather than pressure-driven origins.

The FDA granted 510(k) clearance for a wireless-enabled pressure-modulating goggle system designed to reduce nocturnal intraocular pressure in adults with open-angle glaucoma, with availability expected in Q4 2026.

A case-control study identified covert mortality nodavirus, previously known only in aquatic animals, in iris tissue of patients with persistent ocular hypertensive viral anterior uveitis, with exposure risk concentrated among those who handle or consume raw aquatic animals daily.
